Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On May 23, 2012, we entered into an employment agreement with Robert Urban pursuant to which he was appointed as our Chief Operating Officer effective May 29, 2012.
Pursuant to his employment agreement, we agreed to pay Mr. Urban an annual base salary of $345,000. His employment agreement also provides that he is eligible to participate in our employee bonus program at the officer level effective as of the start of fiscal year 2013. Any bonus will be paid to him during the first three months of the fiscal year that follows the applicable performance fiscal year. The bonus, if any, will be deemed to have been earned on the date of payment of such bonus and he must be employed through the date of payment in order to receive the bonus. We also agreed to grant to Mr. Urban an option to purchase 150,000 shares of our common stock and a restricted stock award of 14,500 shares of our common stock. We will grant both the option and the restricted stock award on May 29, 2012, the date he will commence employment. The option will have an exercise price per share equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the grant date (as determined in accordance with our 2010 Long Term Incentive Plan) and will vest as to 25% of the shares one year from the grant date, with the remaining 75% to vest in 36 substantially equal monthly installments over the following three years. The restricted stock award will vest as to 3,625 shares upon each of the first four year anniversaries of the grant date. Vesting of both the option and the restricted stock award are subject to Mr. Urban being employed with us on the applicable vesting date. Both the option and the restricted stock grant will be subject to the terms of our 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan.
Mr. Urbans employment with us is at-will and either he or we can terminate his employment at any time and for any reason or for no reason, in each case subject to obligations of the parties under his employment agreement. Upon termination of employment for any reason, Mr. Urban will receive payment or benefits from us covering the following: (i) all unpaid salary and unpaid vacation accrued through the date of termination of employment, (ii) any payments/benefits to which he is entitled under the express terms of any applicable company employee benefit plan, (iii) any unreimbursed business expenses, and (iv) his then outstanding equity compensation awards as governed by their applicable terms. We refer to the payments and benefits described in the immediately preceding clauses (i) through (iv) collectively as the Accrued Pay.
If Mr. Urban voluntarily terminates his employment, if we terminate Mr. Urbans employment for cause (as defined in his employment agreement) or if his employment terminates due to his disability (as defined in his employment agreement), death or presumed death, then he or his estate will be entitled to receive only the Accrued Pay.
If we terminate Mr. Urbans employment without cause, he will be asked to execute and deliver to us a separation agreement that will provide, among other things, a release of all claims against our company and a covenant not to sue our company. So long as Mr. Urban executes and does not revoke the separation agreement, and he remains in full compliance with its terms, he will be entitled to (i) the Accrued Pay, and (ii) payments equal in the aggregate to his then annualized base salary. The payments referred to in the immediately preceding clause (ii) will be paid in substantially equal monthly installments over the 12 month period following the date of termination of employment, except that the first payment (in an amount equal to two months of base salary) will be made on the 60th day following the date of termination of employment.
If, within 12 months after the occurrence of an event constituting a change in control (as defined in his employment agreement), Mr. Urbans employment terminates for any reason other than for cause, disability, death, presumed death or voluntary termination, then we will pay Mr. Urban the payments and benefits described in the paragraph above as if his employment was terminated without cause, and unless otherwise provided in the applicable option agreement or award agreement, all stock options and other stock-based awards granted to Mr. Urban will immediately accelerate and become exercisable or non-forfeitable as of the date of the change in control, and he will be entitled to any other rights and benefits with respect to stock-related awards, to the extent and upon the terms provided in the stock option or incentive plan or any agreement or other instrument under which such options or awards were granted.
